From: Homozygosity mapping and sequencing identify two genes that might contribute to pointing behavior in hunting dogs

Haplotype frequencies in candidate region on chromosome 22. Frequencies of chromosome 22 haplotype combinations in/near the MLNR gene spanning 32.5 kb. Pointing dogs (n = 172; 1 English Setter, 7 German Longhaired Pointing Dogs, 6 Gordon Setter, 5 Irish Setter, 75 Large Munsterlander and 78 Weimaraner dogs), 20 German Shorthaired Pointing Dogs, other hunting dogs including wolves (n = 120; 23 Dachshunds, 2 Flat Coated Retriever, 45 Glen of Imaal Terrier, 8 Golden Retriever, 21 Labrador Retriever, 18 German Wachtelhunds and 3 wolves) and herding dogs (n = 165; 42 Berger des Pyrenées, 41 Giant Schnauzers, 14 Kuvasz and 68 Schapendoes) were compared. Homozygosity for the haplotype TATCA (SNPs rs23039271, rs23029055, rs23064266, rs23039274 and rs23003918) was observed in all pointing dogs except German Shorthaired Pointing Dogs.
